Back when the iPhone had no push anything, it was a glaring omission as it was a common feature on other smartphones and therefore a necessity. But does push really matter?

I recently disabled push on my iPhone because I was curious if it mattered to me and I realized it doesn't at all. Why do I need to have everything the instant it happens? Five minutes later isn't fast enough? I understand that some people are in positions where push may seem necessary for their work, but is it really? Can't we just wait a few minutes? Consider how much of a productivity drain those distracting dings have contributed to. Share your thoughts in the comments and vote below.
